Scouting Report

Assets
  • A complete player: blessed with the skills of a point guard and the frame of a power forward. Can excel at any position except center and can carry a team either as a scorer or playmaker. A classy leader on and off the court.
Flaws
  • Serious injuries over several years have sapped some of his superstar explosiveness. Age and durability concerns mean his minutes often have to be limited. Not the passer he once was.
Career Potential
  • Former superstar; star swingman.
